Moscow wants ceasefire, says minister

(ANSA) - Moscow, September 1 - Moscow supports "an exclusively peaceful resolution of that most serious crisis, that tragedy," in Ukraine, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told students on Monday.
    Speaking at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations, Lavrov said he hopes the meetings planned between negotiators on Monday will be dedicated above all to finding an immediate unconditional ceasefire.
    Lavrov also said that Moscow is ready to appeal to the World Trade Organization regarding its opposition to the retroactive introduction of the EU third energy package, which Moscow sees as penalizing Russian energy giant Gazprom by forcing it to permit third parties to access its gas pipelines abroad.
